Unacceptable Demands from Russia Towards Ukraine, as Stated by Silina

In a significant development, the Coalition of the Willing held a meeting on Sunday to discuss practical preparations and support for Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky. The gathering was also focused on understanding the practical preparations and support for the upcoming meetings between Ukrainian, European, and US leaders.

The talks followed a meeting between US President Donald Trump and Russian President Vladimir Putin last Friday in Anchorage, Alaska. Trump described the meeting as "very productive" and said that they agreed on "many points", but the details were not disclosed.

Latvian Prime Minister Evika Silina, who attended the Coalition of the Willing meeting, expressed the need for a trilateral meeting between the president of Ukraine, the president of Russia, and the US president. However, the status of this meeting is not specified.

Silina also emphasized the importance of knowing the security guarantees the United States is promising to Ukraine, specifically regarding military support and potential military presence. She stated that Donetsk, a region in Ukraine, is not negotiable.

Prime Minister Silina has been vocal about Russia’s ultimatums or demands regarding Ukraine’s sovereignty and territorial integrity. She has strongly criticized any demands involving Ukrainian concessions or acceptance of Russian control over Ukrainian territories, as they undermine Ukraine's independence and violate international law.

In a recent development, Trump is reportedly trying to keep Russian President Putin at the negotiation table, but Silina highlighted the need for a sanctions package if talks fail.

The Coalition of the Willing is a group of countries willing and ready to contribute to Ukraine. The meetings are a testament to the international community's commitment to supporting Ukraine in its ongoing conflict.

In a surprising statement, Trump suggested that Zelensky could end the war with Russia almost immediately if he chooses to. The details of this proposal are not yet clear, and it remains to be seen how Ukraine's leaders will respond.

As the situation in Ukraine continues to evolve, the international community will closely watch the developments and the negotiations between world leaders. The upcoming meetings between Zelensky and Trump in Washington, as well as discussions with European leaders, will be key in determining the future course of action.
